2. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) AMENDMENTS TO
THE PROGRAM YEAR 2012 -2014 ACTION PLANS
The Housing and Community Act of 1974, as amended, created the Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) program to return federal funds to local
communities for the purpose of developing viable urban communities by
providing adequate housing and a suitable living environment and by expanding
economic opportunities, specifically for low -and moderate - income persons.
Grants are awarded to communities to carry out a wide range of community
development activities directed toward neighborhood revitalization, economic
development, public services activities, and the provision of improved
community facilities and services.
Under the CDBG program regulations, communities are required to expend
CDBG monies expeditiously. City staff proposes to amend prior year Action
Plans in order to reallocate CDBG funds to meet timeliness requirements of the
CDBG program. Excess funds are available from projects which have not been
implemented, are delayed, or no longer require further funding. A substantial
amendment to an Action Plan is required when there is an increase or decrease
in funds of fifty (50) percent or more allocated to a specific project or program;
or a new activity not previously described in the Action Plan is to be added.
